Dr.Web Scanner On Android TV

Top  Previous  Next

Dr.Web Scanner scans files on your device upon your request. It performs express or full check of the whole file system or scans critical files and folders only.

You should periodically scan the system, especially if SpIDer Guard has not been active for a while. Usually, the express scan is sufficient for this purpose.

Scanning

To scan the system, on the main screen select Scanner and then (see Figure 31) select one of the following actions:

To check installed applications, tap Express scan.

To scan all the files in the system, tap Full scan.

To scan only critical files and folders, select Custom scan and then select an object you want to scan.

To scan the whole folder, select the Scan folder option. To go up a level, select Up.

If your device is rooted, you can also scan /sbin and /data folders located in the root directory.

After the scanning is finished, you can review the list of detected threats and choose an action for each malicious object.
